Context of Mark 2:12

10But so you may know that the Son of Man has authority to pardon sins on earth….” He tells the paralyzed man, 11“I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home!” At once the man got up, took his mat, and walked before them all. They were all astonished and glorified God, saying, “We’ve never seen anything like this!” 13Again, Yeshua went out by the sea. The whole crowd kept coming to Him, and He continued to teach them. 14As He was passing by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax collector’s booth. He said to him, “Follow Me.” And he got up and followed Him.

Commentaries on Mark 2:12

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 12He - took up the bed - The words of Prosper, on this place, are worthy of notice: - "What is sin but a deplorable fall, a grovelling on the earth, a repose in the creature, often followed by a universal palsy of the soul; namely, an utter inability to help itself, to break off its evil habits, to walk in the ways of God, to rise or to take one good step towards him?
